Thus said Kabir -1

Sun does not come to the horizon till stars twinkle. Man continues to be caught in the illusion of this materialistic world under the effect of past actions (karmas) till he is oblivious of spirituality.

तब लग तारा जगमगे, जब लग उगे न सूर ।

तब लग जीव जग कर्मवश, ज्यों लग ज्ञान न पूर ॥

A perfect saint never stores the material possessions and lives only for the present. He is fully confident that God will take care of his tomorrow.

साधु गाँठि न बाँधई, उदर समाता लेय ।

आगे-पीछे हरि खड़े जब भोगे तब देय ॥

You may not perform positive and virtuous behavior just because you are born in family of higher status or higher caste. You may be like a intoxicating liquor in vessel of gold and may behave in negative and indecent manner.
